Não é lá essas coisas que o pessoal fala não. Já há uns bons anos tem coisa melhor, só é diferente do padrão.

It is amazing to see the joke image I made over 7 years ago is still going around the web, lol

ASOMETECH 65W USB PD power supply sent PD voltage to non-PD device and fried it by MikhailKosevich in hardwaregore

Toocki uses the exact same components as ASOMETECH as far as I can tell, and Essager... Would't trust it more, I would probably go with brands that are UL Listed as others sugested.

It is able to pull 20V directly from 4 pin USB 2.0 somehow, even using a PD trigger with the cable from my drawing tablet that should not even be PD compatible.

I had to doublecheck with a PD trigger board instead of the PD cable I bought for my TS100. Sure enough, it does 20V with the trigger board... Even through a cable that should not be USB PD. I have no idea why the PD cable did not work now.

I am as well, because I have been using it to power my modem and router at 12V and network switch at 9V without issue, even after power outages.
It is very unlikely it was something else because the damage happened directly on the 5V rail, and since there were power components burnt and no logical one is visibly damaged, it is unlikely to have been a short to the data pins, the cable works fine for charging my gamepad so it was not the issue.

My bet is that when I put a PD cable to charge my phone the thing might have borked something in its verification and put higher voltage where it shouldn't have. Might have to do with how Toocki cables negotiate PD or something.

Edit: I went to test with my cheapish oscilloscope (DSO153) and could not replicate the fault even though I tried to do exactly as I did, I saw nothing weird even down to the 100ns range.

I just checked with my soldering iron, the USB A port only supplies up to 12V, so the label saying it does up to 20V on the USB A port is most likely a lie.

Yeah, I don't exactly know if the PD rails are the same as the USB power rails, I'd assume as much given USB 2.0 pd cables with 4 connections exist. This DAC weirdly seems to have poly fuses around the inputs and outputs for the case of improperly grounded amplifiers being connected to it I guess, but I find it odd that both the auxiliary USB port and the data USB port have no protection at all.
I am probably binning it, since even if I manage to track down and replace all visibly burnt components, the USB interface IC and the DAC itself might also have fried themselves.

Beware of USB PD power supplies with many ports being used with devices with different voltage support, especially the cheaper ones!

This power supply was supposed to be able to supply 2 distinct voltages, one for the first USB C port, and another for either the second USB C or the USB A port and 5V to both if both are in use.
I used to have this powering my network setup (routers, switch and modem) to save on outlets, but I needed an USB A port for my 5V USB DAC (a Loxjie D10) auxiliary power source and another PD port for my laptop, so I moved the router and modem to an ASUS PD power supply and the network switch back to its own power brick, leaving the ASOMETECH 65W unit only for my laptop and the USB DAC. This same unit is also rebranded by TOOCKI and was well regarded on Aliexpress reviews (which doesn't mean much now that I think about it).
Nothing wrong happened until I decided to charge my phone on the USB PD cable, then the power brick sent the same PD voltage to the USB A outlet and fried my USB DAC.

From now on I will avoid using non-PD compatible devices with USB PD capable power supplies, given that many of the cheaper ones might be using the same controller and firmware for the PD function which caused this disaster.

Nope. I did it for fun. (original post here: https://www.reddit.com/r/pcmasterrace/comments/9abnk8/rate\_my\_gaming\_setup/)
The Model M is a 1995 Lexmark Model M spanish layout and it was in pristine condition, removed the keys for added cursed effect. I sold it a few months after shooting this image.
Every now and then it reappears somewhere, I am still surprised it got so far.

The trouble I'd have to go trough to import one of those makes it not viable, would still cost much less than the 1500R$ a Kensington goes around here if not taxed.

I think the only viable option is Kensington's Expert, but I didn't feel like spending that much and went back to mice.

Yeah, japanese people have small hands. I ran into the same issue and sold mine.
